IMHO, when it comes to Dictionaries, the Kindle is hands-down the best choice.
BTW, you can test the monolingual English and Spanish dictionaries yourself by installing any of the free Kindle apps. (The Kindle apps come with the UK/US Oxford English dictionaries and the
DRAE Spanish dictionary.)
If you buy a current eInk Kindle model and register it with Amazon you can also download the Spanish<->English Oxford dictionaries for free. (However, these dictionaries usually need to be manually downloaded.)
Registered eInk Kindle
* users can download 30 monolingual and bilingual dictionaries.
Here's the complete list:
